Add Style to Your Home With Vintage Posters
Shop According to Your Home's Décor
You may love science fiction movies, but those types of prints probably won't fit the décor of your family room or look appropriate over your fireplace. Instead, choose vintage posters of world locations such as Paris or Milan or the ruins of Greece. You can also choose reprints of famous artwork, photography or abstract art. Because the posters are created in a vintage style they will add personality to your home while still looking appropriate as works of art and will enhance your overall décor rather than detract from it.
Frame Your Prints
Unless you're in high school or live in a college dorm, you never want to just tack your poster to the wall, or put it in a cheap plastic frame. The frame of any print adds as much visual interest as the print itself, and a nice frame can dress up the print you choose. A cheaper frame will make your artwork look cheap no matter what the subject or style is. Remember that your poster will be on display in your home, so you will want to invest in a high-quality frame that is suitable. It should also be appropriate for the print. If you want something retro from the 50's, choose something metallic. For a reprint of fine art or photography, you might choose a wooden frame that best suits a work of art. For a modern décor, a plain black frame will enhance your print and suit your modern style. Take your time and select the print and the frame and you'll be sure to find what looks best in your home.

Three Reasons Why Movie Posters Make the Perfect Gift
They’re Great for Acquaintances
Shopping for gifts for coworkers and casual friends is often challenging simply because you don't know a lot about their tastes and likes. Perfume and bath items for a female coworker can send the wrong message, and engraved items or clothes for a boss or friend may also seem a bit intimate. But movie posters can appeal to someone’s personal taste without being inappropriate. They're also unique and the recipient won’t be likely to get duplicates—a plus for anyone who hates to have to return gifts.
You’ll Have Lots of Variety
You’d be hard pressed to find a gift that offers as much variety as posters. The person you’re buying for may love old romantic movie posters, or you may have a sci-fi buff on your gift list. When buying for children, you’ll be able to choose from any number of children's movie posters or cartoon posters, and if you’re shopping for a teen, superhero movie posters are always a hit. You can even find prints of movies around a certain theme, such as Christian, apartheid, real life drama, or any number that represent different cultures and countries. If you put movie posters on your gift list, you won't need to spend hours scouring the mall for the perfect gift for anyone on your list this holiday season.
You Can Give the Classics
Posters never go out of style. A person's taste in artwork may change and clothes may lose their favor, but a favorite movie will always stay classic. A framed print can be hung in the office or den. What’s more, many families are installing their own home theatres where framed posters would be a perfect fit. That makes them the perfect choice for anyone on your gift list.

Posters Are Not Just for the Young
Most people associate posters with teenagers' bedrooms and with classrooms. But posters are used by plenty of style-conscious adults who want to make the most of their home or office without spending a lot of money. Because they're lightweight and inexpensive, putting up posters is simple and doesn't damage walls.
Scale Posters to the Space
Large, empty walls can accommodate multiple large posters, so don't be afraid to think big if you have a plain, boring wall that needs to be updated. Likewise, small spaces should use small posters. Even if a wall is big enough for a large poster, in smaller rooms and nooks, a few smaller posters grouped together usually looks better.
Using Posters to Open up and Redefine a Space
The right poster can totally change the look and feel of a room. In a home or apartment without a nice view, a stunning landscape poster can turn a dull, depressing space into something beautiful. Many motivational posters feature great nature photos and provide the perfect antidote to imperfect or boring surroundings. A small interior bathroom without windows becomes much more inviting with a poster of a lush, colorful garden.
Frames are Essential
Posters tacked directly to walls are for college students and teens. Even though poster frames are usually quite simple so as to let the artwork capture the attention, they are necessary to give posters a finished look. Some people purchase frames in stands and are able to use posters as casual room dividers. Fortunately, poster frames don't cost much. Plus, if you plan to change posters regularly, you can store more than one in a frame for later use.
Grouping Posters for Dramatic Effect
A group of posters can create an effect that is greater than the sum of the individual posters. Putting together a series of multiple motivational posters in a home office can offer quiet inspiration. A few beautiful recipe posters give a kitchen a finished, yet casual look. Don't be afraid to experiment with different posters and to change them out periodically. The expense is minimal, but the impact can be major.

Movie Posters are Terrific for Adding Decorative Interest
Family Rooms
Family rooms are the perfect place to hang posters, and posters from great movies are perfect for creating a relaxing ambience. Those with very large family rooms who want to create multiple "zones" in the room can suspend framed posters from the ceiling or use posters in stand-up frames as casual room dividers.
Children's Rooms
Children's rooms make great settings for posters from a child's favorite movie. The bright colors and crisp, clear artwork liven up the room and can be easily changed as the child grows up. They also make terrific additions to "themed" children's bedrooms, such as those with Disney themes, and those with themes from other favorite children's films.
Teens' Rooms
The teenager's bedroom and the poster have a long history together. Posters make a great way for teens to express their individuality in the décor of their rooms. They're relatively inexpensive, and when put up in lightweight poster frames, they won't damage walls. Furthermore, it's easy to change up the look of a teen's bedroom simply by changing the posters on the walls.
Adults' Rooms
The movie poster can also be a tasteful and beautiful item of décor in grown-ups' bedrooms too. What better way to remember a memorable night out at the movies than to put up a beautiful poster from that movie where it will be seen every day? Spouses can remember "their" special movie every day. And even non-movie fans can appreciate the effect of a poster from a classic like Casablanca on a retro styled bedroom.
If your home could use an update, but you don't have a lot of money to spend, consider the movie poster as a great choice for adding fun, beauty, and a unique bit of history to your interior spaces.
